Scrutineer's Notice for Intermarque Drivers

Added: 28th June 2014

Quaife Intermarque drivers are reminded of the requirement to have methods of securing both the drivers and passenger side doors. So that they can be opened both from the inside and outside. Bonnet clips etc are not suitable for use on the passenger doors, especially as you may need to exit the car from that side in an emergency and with marshals not immediately on the scene.

This was publicised over the winter and the Scrutineers have given plenty of time for compliance.

As of Snetterton the Scrutineers will be instructed not to pass any car that does not have both doors capable of being opened from the inside or with unclear or unmarked methods of opening doors (MSA Blue Book Q19.2.5 (b)).

Furthermore, all ventilation slots, raised bonnets etc must have fluid inhibiting mesh fitted to prevent the loss of fluid. Especially as this applies where there is a gap at the bottom of the windscreen where the bulkhead does not directly connect to the screen.

Important Information - Lydden Hill Passes and Paddock Rules

Added: 17th June 2014

In view of the Brands Hatch incident you will be required to wear wristbands at all times during the Lydden Hill meeting this weekend. These have now been posted FIRST CLASS to everyone who is booked in to race.

Space in the paddock will be at a premium this weekend. NO private cars will be allowed below the welcome hut. Teams must make sure that all their equipment is with their tow vehicle. When you arrive at the circuit please proceed to the welcome hut, where you will be directed to your parking space. Do not ignore the instructions you are given, as you will be asked to move if you are in the wrong area.

Please check the parking plan. It would assist if QMN teams did not try to access the lower paddock until the racing on Saturday has finished. You can watch the races from the top of the hill, if you arrive early. The paddock will not be open until 4PM on Friday. Teams arriving after 11PM will not be able to park in their allocated area until the following morning.

Important Notice for ALL Drivers!

Added: 9th June 2014

All drivers please note that it is compulsory to attend a scheduled drivers briefing. Failure to do so may result in a fine of up to £170 see pages 106 and 392 of the MSA blue book.

Competitors are advised to have greater understanding of the MSA's judicial procedures.

With regard to protests and appeals these are detailed in the Blue Book in Section C on pages 71 and 72, with the appropriate fees listed on page 392.

Please especially note C5.3.5.

Post qualifying or post race inspections can only take place where competing cars have been wholly under parc ferme regulations. We only allow the driver and one mechanic per car into the designated area. Neither can touch the car until allowed or requested to do so.

For the purposes of avoiding any misunderstandings we require that any equipment with datalogging capability - whether separate units or part of integral electronic dashes etc MUST be removed from cars prior to Lydden on June 21st.

Fuel samples have been taken from various cars in all three of our championships.

All have been delivered to the MSA (in two separate batches) to be taken for analysis at one of their independent laboratories and the results are awaited.

This is part of an ongoing fuel testing regime, where we have funding from the MSA to carry out further testing.

Finally, Quaife Intermarque drivers are reminded that no car can be tested at any circuit where there is to be a race within the next 28 days.

A random selection of drivers were breath tested at Brands Hatch yesterday, in accordance with our regulations. All passed OK. This is a procedure which will be repeated at other events.
